AMResizableSplitterView is a replacement for UISplitViewController that allows the user to drag a splitter to resize the split views. This project is actively under development, but I decided to make it public from the get-go.
I had been using Matt Gemmell's MGSplitViewController for one of my current projects, but I have a had a number of issues with it and found the code unnecessarily complex. (I started iOS development with 4.0 and switched to 5.0 as a minimum version after WWDC 2011, so most code older than that seems too complex to me.) AMResizableSplitterView is much simpler since it uses the container view controllers added with iOS 5.
- User-draggable splitter
- Allows setting different minimum sizes for each view and landscape/portrait orientation
- Splitter is simple UIView with the background color set to a default color. Customize to your hearts desire.
Take a look at the AppDelegate class for sample usage. Here's the snippet that setups the split view.
self.viewController = [[AMResizableSplitViewController alloc] init];
self.window.rootViewController = self.viewController;
self.viewController.minimumView2Size = CGSizeMake(200, 200);
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
ImageViewController *i1 = [[ImageViewController alloc] init];
ImageViewController *i2 = [[ImageViewController alloc] init];
[i1 view];
[i2 view];
i1.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"image1.jpg"];
i2.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"image2.jpg"];
self.viewController.controller1 = i1;
self.viewController.controller2 = i2;
- iOS 5.1 (might work with 5.0, but only tested with 5.1)
- Xcode 4.3 or greater (only tested with 4.5)
- ARC enabled
- allow specifying optional gradient colors for splitter background
